In 1835, Lafayette, too soon familiar with violence, housed a fort that held Cherokee people until their forced removal west, and then, in 1863, Walker County witnessed 34,000 Union and Confederate deaths at Chickamauga, a battle often considered the second bloodiest of the Civil War.
Re: After Provisional Patent Expires... You should get the provisional filed within that 12 month window. If you forget or unintentionally did not file the non-provisional you can petition the patent office for an extra 2 months but the petition fee starts at $800.
Acceptance or Denial. After the review process is complete your patent will be approved or denied. If the patent is approved, expect to wait anywhere from 3 months to a year for the issuance of the patent. Keep in touch with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during this time; donât let your patent get lost in the shuffle.
